Abstract:
Both subclinical hypothyroidism(SCH)and cognitive dysfunction are common comorbidities in the elderly.SCH is often accompanied by elevated levels of uric acid and blood lipids.It remains controversial whether SCH and cognitive dysfunction are related, and whether elevated blood uric acid and blood lipids become risk factors for cognitive impairment.This paper aims at analyzing these risk factors to explore the association of SCH with cognitive impairment, and to explore the role of high uric acid and high blood lipid levels on cognitive impairment.
